Witness Testimony: Albert Cadosche

[Herlock Sholmes]

May I ask you, Herlock, whether you agree with the following statement:

A very large percentage of that local population was Jewish; therefore the odds on the killer being Jewish must roughly equal that percentage of the population.

No I wouldn’t. I don’t assume that the killer was a local man for a start although he certainly could have been.

[PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR 1]

Splendid.

[Herlock Sholmes]

Any reason for the mysterious one word response?

[PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR 1]

I do not agree with that statement, either, and I would not assume that the murderer was a long-term local resident either.

May I ask you, Herlock, whether you agree with the following statement:

A very large percentage of that local population was Jewish; therefore the odds on the killer being Jewish must roughly equal that percentage of the population.

That statement is useless for determining the ethnicity or religion of the killer.

[PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR 1]

That statement is useless for determining the ethnicity or religion of the killer.

I agree.

I have always thought it is quite wrong.

[Bridewell]

A minor bugbear. I know the press spelt it phonetically as Cadoche back in the day but the name of the witness is Cadosch (Charles Albert Cadosch).

I think the last few pages have been interesting, drunken brawl tendency denials and the like, but Ive seen UK and European (Football) Soccer matches. Everyone, every ethnicity, can and do and did engage in drunken brawls. It has to do with alcohol problems and/or immaturity, not ethnicity.
